Conclusive evidence on the relationship between corruptionand migration has remained scant in the literature todate. Using data from 2008 to 2018 on bilateral migrationflows across European Union and European Free TradeAssociation countries and four measures of corruption, thispaper shows that corruption acts as both a push factor anda pull factor for migration patterns.

The same one-unit increase in the destinationcountry is associated with a 10 percent decline inin-migration
